Freezer noise mainly comes from the compressor. The Compressor generates various sounds. There are continuous and not continuous, periodic and not periodic. Their frequencies may be from tens of Hertz to thousands of Hertz. Reasons for compressor noise are:
(1)There are two pieces thin elastic steel slice inside the compressor (gas in valve and gas out valve), when the freezer starts, each steel slice will open and close about 47 times per second, this will cause vibration sound. At the same time, the open and close of steel slice will contacts other parts and also make sound. The continuous buzz we heard is this kind of sound.
(2)When compressor is produced, there must be clearance between components. When freezer is running, the existing of clearance will make some components touch and gives out sound. Especially, at starting and stopping, the forces acted on compressor components changes greatly and bigger sound will be generated.
(3)Noise of flowing liquid
The running process of compressor is a continuous gas in and out process.
If the pressure of refrigerant gas breathed in or exhausted out changes suddenly, vibration sound will be generated.
